2nd Place Diosesan Chess Meet

​ Diocesan Chess Meet: We received second place in the Diocesan Chess Meet March 5! 35 ICS students attended the meet at Blessed Sacrament and there were 180 students in attendance. Tyler Stern led the way with a perfect 4-0 score and James Ramette was undefeated with 3 wins and a tie. This meet capped the end of a great "season of second places" despite never sending a full team due to other academic competitions. Students are involved in sporting events, math competitions, science olympiads, scholastic bowl meets, and charitable endeavors. This lends the opportunity for a variety of students to step up and be leaders, and all were great contributors. Thanks to Coach Cyra Herrmann, our Chess Team, and our parents for transport!
